Wrap it up! Nonfiction November

The Wrap Up!

Love your nonfiction? Nonfiction November is hosted by an awesome bunch of peeps: Kim of Sophisticated Dorkiness, Leslie of Regular Rumination, Becca of I'm Lost In Books and Katie of Doing Dewey.

This is my first year joining and I had a lot of fun. While I have failed miserably getting more nonfiction actually read during this challenge, I sure did score with all the recommendations that kept popping up in everyone's posts ... and I am ready to roll for next year's nonfiction TBR!

The four weekly posts posed some very intriguing questions. Here are all my posts if you missed them:

Week 4: New to my TBR
Week 3: Diversity and Nonfiction
Week 2: Be the Expert/Ask the Expert
Week 1: My Year in Nonfiction 

Not quite by design, I had some authors who guest posted:

Amanda Roberts: From Famine to Feasting – Learning to Cook While Living Abroad

Amanda Roberts is an American living in China. She came up with her recipe book Crazy Dumplings in an attempt to "codify" her cooking while in a foreign land. Doesn't that cover make you hungry? Why not try some of her recipes?

Peter Schattner: Q and A on Sex, Love and DNA

Nature or Nurture. Dr. Peter Schattner and I have a quick question and answer on this age-old question and bring out some interesting points on how our DNA impacts on our sex and love lives, the subject of his book Sex, Love and DNA: What Molecular Biology Teaches Us About Being Human.

D.J. Donaldson: Outbreak ... Breakdown

D.J. Donaldson's book, Louisiana Fever, is about the Congo hemorrhagic fever. Having come from a forensic/health background, he feels compelled to weigh in on the Ebola outbreak.

I'm definitely joining again next year. I have my TBR to deal with! What about you?
